Setting PS_PORTS

Post by Chrisp »

Hi Guys,

We have a few VNs running on Citrix and I wan to use the console but when I do I get TCP_IN blocked. Reading up, I know the destination port and want to customize the above variable.

At the moment it is : PS_PORTS = "0:65535,ICMP"

I want to exclude from scanning port 5900 through to 5999 inclusive on TCP.

Reading the conf, I think I would set :

PS_PORTS = "0:5899,6000:65535,ICMP,OPEN"

Is that correct? I do NOT want to open the firewall up for those ports, its purely xencentre and ssh tunnelling from the citrix node.

Thanks,
Chris

That setting looks correct to prevent port scanning from blocking when it sees hits on those ports.
